The yictoria.s wreck.

LONDON, April 14.-Further particulars
of the loss near Dieppe of the New Haven
and Dieppe packet Victoria show that the
vessel struck the rocks amidship. The
passengers Immediately rushed to the stern,
which, through downward list of the low,
was buoyed up by the water on that side of
the rocks. A terrible scene ensued then,
while endeavorS were being made to float
the life boats which were seriously inter-
fered with by the strong swell OF the sea.
At last when boat was ready to be low
cred and fifteen men and women embarked
in 1t, lady's shawl became entangled In a
pulley of the stern davit and caused the
boat to descend to the sea bow foremost
Most of the occupants were thrown out and
drowned. Two ladies jumped from the
deck of the steamer into the boat after it
reached the water and overturned 1t. Other
boats we've then safely launched and sue
ceeded in reaching Fecamp, rescuing on the
way with boat hooks two persons who had
been swept out to sea. Mrs. Brain Stokes
was saved. The Paris Figaro says: A ter.
rible responsibility rests upon the Keepers
of the Cape ALLY lighthouse, who only
sounded the fog horn after hearing the
crash made by the steamer as she struck
the rocks. THE captain of the Victoria
maintained great GOODNESS and guaranteed
the safety of all on board if they would but
obey his orders.

Place and with shat of Mrs. Lin.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April Id. The re-
mains of President and Mrs. Lincoln were
privately taken from their secret resting
place this morning and inferred in the north
vault of the Lincoln monument In Oak
Ridge cemetery. near this city. Less than
a dozen persons, members of the Lib
coin Monument association and Lincoln
Guard OF Honor. were present. For years
the whereabouts of the remains Of the great
president and his wife has been vested in
mystery from anxiety that they would be
stolen to obtain huge ransom for their re-
turn. The actual attempt to carry off the
body Of the president i'll 1876 was the NOV
ing cause of the formation of the guard of
honor. which organization secreted them
and to-day surrendered the charge. Great
care was taken to keep the event of this
morning a profound secret. At the APP
pointed hour few besides the little knot Of
guards were present. The secret grave
was directly under the north base
OF the ObeiSk about thirty feet
from the north entrance, but only
accessible through the south door.
A door Oh the north of the hole where the
Lincoln relics are kept led through long
passage first east then north. then west,
and then south to a recess. Here, about
three feet below the surface of the floor,
were deposited the remains of Abraham
Lincoln and his wife. The body of Mr.
Lincoln was in a walnut coffin lined with
light lead lining about one-eighth of an inch
thick. The walnut coffin was in a cedar
box. and the cedar box was in
closed in pine box. Mrs. Lin
coins remains were similarly inelosed.
TWENTY-FIVE years ago to-day Lincoln was
shot. When the guards. with the help of
few laborers, had eXhumed the collins and
the lid of the presidents was removed, his
face was seen to be in remarkable state of
preservation. Those who stood around and
had known Lincoln when alive. easily dis
cerned the features. They were verv dis
tnct. The silver plate on the coffin lid was
bright. On the plate was inscribed the fol-
lowing:

ABRAHAM LINCOLN,
FIFTEENTH PRESIDENT.
Born Feb. IL, 1909;
Died ADril I5. 1895

While the remains of Mr.. Lincoln were
exposed, Gen. Reese. president of the
Guards of Honor. turned the remains of
Mr.. Lincoln over to the Lincoln Monument
association. A certificate was signed by
the Guards of Honor, certifying that the
remains in the coffin were those received
from the Lincoln Monument association.
The Monument association made out a GER
tificate, signed by the members. for the
recorder Of the association, declaring
the remains to be those of Abraham Lin
coin. The undertaken was then directed to
seal the coffin, and Leon Hopkins, a
plumber, sealed it up. The coffin was then
taken out by the workmen and carried
around to the vault on the north side. The
members of the two associations and a
stranger or two. who happened to be look
ing at the monument. followed. In the
north vault the floor had been taken up. A
hole eight feet long by six feet wide and
five and one-half deep, .bricked up and &C.
mented, had been prepared. The preSi-
dents coffin was placed in this grave on the
west SIDE The coffin containing Mrs.
Lncoln's remains. which bad been brought
from the secret grave before the other cof-
fin was carried around. was then brought to
the vault and placed OH the east side of her
husband. A brick arch was then built over
the collins. This was covered with didro1ic
cement mixed with small broken rock.
Two guards will be on duty at the tomb
until the cement becomes hard. The
marble sarcophagus in which the pu bile
have supposed the remains have been, is
still in the vault. Without further cere
mony the remains of husband and wife
were left to molder together in tile grave.

THE MARKET HALL MEETIN G

THE MARKET HALL MEETIN G
The mass meeting which was held in
Market hall last evening was not only inter-
esting and unanimously enthusiastic, but
was an expression of public sentiment in
the metropolis of this great Northwest
which will be peculiarly encouraging to the
friends of political freedom on the other
side of the water. While the meeting was
held under the auspices Of our Irish fellow
citizens, it was essentially an American
affair." The speeches which were delivered
and letters which were read mad PATRICK
HENRY ring about them. They were a
protest against the oppression and intoler-
ance of the British parliament. The CO.
ercion bill Is a travesty upon the laws and
experiences of free people, and last
nights protests against its passage bore a
striking similarity to the grievances set
forth by the American colonies.
The coercion bill proposes to suspend the
writ of habeas corpus for Ireland in time of
peace.
1t abridges and in some cases entirely
abolishes the right of trial by jury.
1t invests British magistrates with arbi-
trary power contrary to Magma Charta.
These magistrates are appointed by the
British government to rule over the Irish
reasantry to whom they are in no sense re-
sponsible.

the hospital at midnight and the husband is
suffering the agonies of the damned. Jeal-

Mrs. Bertrand, and this did not meet the
appreciation of the husband, who told his
wife of his suspicious which she resented.
This afternoon he met her at the corner of
Throop and Madison streets and shot her.
The first bullet entered her breast and
passed through the lung The second hit
her in the forehead. She fell to the pave
ment mortally wounded. Turning the re-
volver upon himself Bertrand let go

his scalp. The police were called and the
two were removed to the hospital. Several
officers were detailed to hunt up the man
who was the cause of the tragedy, but he
was not found up to late hour. Both

How to Find a Drowned Body.

We learn that two negroes tied their
clothing to the backs Of their necks and at
tempted to swim the river near Abbeyville
about two weeks since. One of them
gained the opposite bank in safety,
but the other drowned. The plan
for recovering the dead body was
rather novel one. An old darkey took
a bundle of fodder and placed it in the river
denly stopped and commenced to whirl
slowly round and round. Here the old
negro dived down and secured the body.
He claims to have recovered four or five
other lost bodies by this means in his ex-
perience, and declares it to be an infallible
